The basic Blitz installed from the Amazon App store will save around 20%-25% on all in-game purchases, but it's the Amazon coins that really boost your savings by pre-paying for the in-game content with discounts of up to 22%

Now, I will start by saying that the pricing of coins appears to fluctuate, so it's worth checking them regularly to get the best deals, and it varies from currency to currency. The following table shows you the current situation on the 4th August 2018.

So as you can see the currency fluctuates a lot across regions. And in the three days I have been monitoring this the 10,000 bundle in the UK went from £80.00, to £82.00 and now £84.00. So it's best to keep track of the pricing in your region and if you know you want the coins, buy at their lowest price.

I've highlighted the highest value options, but they obviously all have discounts and it's up to you to decide how many you want and if that is worth spending on.

The 50,000 bundle offers the best value, but that is a lot to ask to spend in one lump, even for a wallet warrior like myself.

Of course, once they are purchased they will retain their value, so you don't have to worry if they put up the cost, you've already paid for them.

I did have one glitch with Amazon. I bought the 10,000 bundle, then the next day they sent me an email saying they though there was fraudulent activity on my account and rewound the order, refunded the payment and reset my password. It was a minor inconvenience, I guess as this was the first time I'd really used the coins it may have looked suspicious to them.

Not all territories seem to have the coins in the Amazon store yet. Amazon states they are only available in US, UK, Australia, Germany, Japan, France, Italy and Spain. Which is a kick in the nuts for anyone outside those territories, but at least you can get the app store savings of 20-25% and that's no small thing.

So what are you waiting for, all those expensive tier 10 attachments are just begging to be snapped up now (lol...as if), but at least you are ready and armed when the next lot of offers come around.

But there is, just use the bluestacks emulator on the PC, see my previous article, then use that to do the buying on your account. I play on iOS exclusively, but will do all my purchasing through Amazon and their App Store and coins. Just log in on the same account you use on iOS and it’s as easy as that. Savings for all.

I don’t know if there’s a restriction on the card address but if not then using a vpn from a UK server should work...

Would it be worth to collect all information to one thread, then get it pinned somehow and repeat same at other forums, so that information reaches random forum visitors too. I could imagine that information presented would encourage players to spend more, which I suppose is also in WGs interest. Unless they are thinking this is a exploit of some kind or there is some negative consequences e.g. game visibility in Android/iOS/Steam/W10 stores will be reduced if revenues to store owners are diminishing?

I tried doing this, but I get nowhere near the savings Stubbo reported. Rates may be different in my country, and I cannot find a way to buy the Amazon coins. I installed blitz with the amazon app store.

In game prices are now listed in US$. I considered buying the 8500 gold bundle, which is listed at 28,74$, which equals 184,71 DKK or 24,78 €. I bought the same bundle in mid July, where I paid 195 DKK for it (26,17 € )..

So I save around 5% by buying via amazon instead of google.

Stubbo did comment on this - “Not all territories seem to have the coins in the Amazon store yet. Amazon states they are only available in US, UK, Australia, Germany, Japan, France, Italy and Spain

Dunno if using a vpn you can buy them from UK store but I doubt it as expect card billing address would have to be UK? Dunno if you”

could use paypal though with vpn to use UK amazon? Although that’s starting to sound like Amazon EULA breaking.

Just a follow up note in case anyone has any problems with purchasing the coins on Amazon. They have a "Bug" in their system that can sometims put your account on "hold" when you try and buy coins. It only seems to affect the coins, but once it has been triggered you can't buy any more coins at all.

To fix it, you have to remove your payment card from the account (the one associated wo the 1-click settings for digital content), re-add it...then wait at least 24 hours before making another purchase.

I''ve been having this problem myself, and it's been extremely tortuous getting a resolution from them, but this appears to be the way you resovle the issue.

My advice, buy coins in advance and sit on them....it's not ideal doing it that way, but then at least you know they are there ready for when you want to use them.

I have something in the works that will achieve that....and a lot more!!! stay tuned!

BTW if you use smile.amazon.co.uk they donate 0.5% to a charity of your choice, so not only am I saving money I’m being virtuous at the same time! It’s normal Amazon just gives to charity...

Very true....yeah, it's a bit pot luck with Amazon, it's fluctuated between £79 and £84 for £100 worth of coins this last week...Just a case of knowing what to look for an when to pull the trigger.

What would be helpfull is a site that you can register your interest in Amazon coins on, and set the price you want to pay and it notifies you when it reaches that price point....hmmmm let me dwell on that a little....!!!
